Joe,

I didn't mention 'migration'. I mentioned 'immigration' - people coming into Australia. Migrating is what wildebeests and zebras do.

There is legal immigration; illegal immigration, and refugees. All different, and too many of all of them.

Tell me, true tell me, how do we stop migration
How dowe end refugee intake
Then tell me how we reverse the last quarter century of both
Why would we want to
What would the rest of the world say about that
Would the new White Australia be affected by trade bans if we did
Best start by telling me why this thought bubble has become an election campaign item
Why both sides would NEVER DARE talk about total shutdown of either

Belly stopping most migration, & definitely stopping the most undesirable migration Would be very easy.

Simply enact legislation, & broadcast loudly & long, that we now have a moratorium on all welfare & free medical treatment for the first 5 years of residency of any migrant.

That will quickly get rid of the welfare shoppers, the majority of middle eastern & African immigrants, & others from parts of Asia.

Apply the same rule to all new residents who have been here less than the 5 year qualifying period, with the offer of free repatriation to their last place of residency.

Deport any immigrant, & all their family, if they break any law more serious than minor road rules, with no overview by any QANGO, tribunal or court.

With the above in place, we will soon see the elimination of Islander, African gangs & middle eastern gangs, & a rapid reduction in the number of them in the country.

Now what is the next insoluble problem?

First the pure insanity shown in this link
Damningly stupid and in the end harmful to this government
Hasbeen you seem to think that was a bright post
One that in your view[is it not?] could be done
Without pain? without damaging growth and this country's economy?
What is it about Queensland? [see this mornings SMH ] why do they think so unlike the rest of the country?
Read the link, know that state saw the birth of one nation, is the only state it can hold its voters
Market day this day, out and about, stall holders tell me they have already voted,
I will tomorrow,wonder how much the daily ups and downs for both partys effects the fact voters are in even before today's ALP opening.

Even the crackpot Guardian has published a survey showing that 64% of Australians want a cut in immigration. They might not want to talk about it during campaigning, but the party that doesn't slash immigration, and soon, will be dealt with by the electorate. This Prime Minister stopped the boats as Immigration Minister. As Prime Minister, he can slash immigration - with majority support - if he still has the guts that he used to have. The days when Australia needed mass immigration are well and truly gone. Talk about lack of skills is crap, from an immigration point of view because, as expert Bob Birrell pointed out 12 months ago, almost no new arrivals are going into skilled trades and professions. Immigrants are a burden on the countriy's infrastructure and average Australians. Immigration belongs to a long gone era.

No point in talking about that post this campaign is going to leave a very big problem
How do we mend the mindless hate this campaign is bringing,other than voting Labor?
